Hey everyone!
I've had an email from a friend of a friend asking if I could help her out with an essay she's writing for Uni.
She's looking for online fanfic writers to answer a few questions for her and since all you guys are wonderful people, I'm sure there'll be people willing to help out.
What she would like to know is why you started writing fanfic, what do you think are the advantages/disadvantages of distributing your work online? And how did you share your work/opinions with others before you started using the internet (if you did). She would also like to hear any thoughts you might have on the nature of fan culture.
If you could take the time to answer these questions and to point other people in the direction of this post to help out that would be fantastic!
Answers either in the comments or alternatively you could email me or post it in your own LJ and leave a link in my comments.
Thank you so so much! :)
